It doesn't get that scorching where i live, still with our summer highs of 32c its pretty hot, i've tried 5w40s and 5w30s of castrol and motul... The most stable cool temp oil i got was with the motul 300V 5w30, always between high 80s and mid 90s on stg2+. I've sticked to it

What does VW recommend for those extreme temps? And what does your Dealer use?
